Antique English Victorian Pewter Pint Grain Measure ~ Leytonstone

Ref: AEVPPGML-XX / LA83211

Description

This is a good Mid 19th Century English Victorian antique pewter grain measure of pint capacity, with brass banded rim. No Maker's mark, but the body stamped PINT, with Victorian Weights and Measures Inspector's stamp, and engraved with a partly illegible Leytonstone address. These measures were intended to be used for dry goods, seeds, grains and so forth. Once filled, a stick would then be drawn across the top to skim off any excess content, the brass band around the rim protecting the softer pewter body from damage.
